Sorry for the poor quality / lack of screenshot, this is from my work computer which I isolate from my personal devices, so I just took a picture.

    The malware on your system is Chrome.

    Expecting an advertising company to have your interests in mind (you are the nothing but eyeballs they are delivering to their customers) is the hight of naivety.

      It’s okay, ignore that this is actually a shitty extension and Google is correct, and use the time to rant and soapbox about unrelated crap.

        Maybe you’re right about the soapbox, but OP didn’t say anything inaccurate. Google is actively pushing to have more ads shown in Chrome wherever they can. The author of UbO even advocates for Firefox being the best experience regarding ads.

        we are on a privacy sub. Everything I said is relevant to privacy.

        So, in the nicest possible way. Pull your head in.
